Every now and then, you’ll need your Sims to get angry in Sims 4. This is particularly helpful if you’re seeking a promotion, or maybe just looking to express your anger following your alien abduction in the game.

With that said, here are a few tips and tricks that will help you get angry as quickly as possible.

What Makes a Sim Angry in Sims 4

Just like Sims 4 offers players several career options and leisure activities, there are a number of ways in which players can get their Sims in the angry moodlet. We’ve listed the best ones down below for your convenience.

Keep in mind that you need to stop getting any positive moodlets as well. If you’re looking to get rid of positive moodlets, avoid working out, eating food, and doing other activities that provide Sims with happiness.

Being happy will only add time to your process of getting angry.

Being Cheated on by a Spouse

To make your Sim angry this way, you do not have to perform any task. If your Sim notices their partner having an affair with another Sim, your Sim will become angry with them and they will lose their relationship points.

Viewing an Angry Painting

In Build Mode, players can find various paintings and some of them can make a Sim angry. Place multiple paintings in a room to put your Sim in an angry mood.

Interacting with Cowplant

Players can milk a Cowplant to yield a drink called “Essence of Life ”. This drink adds some days to your Sim’s life.

After surviving a Cowplant bite, Sims receive a potion of feeling that they were in, before getting eaten. Therefore, players also receive a potion of anger from the Cowplant and it looks purple. 

Also, if you’re looking to find a Cowplant, we’ve mentioned it below, so keep reading!

Mean Vibes

Another way of being angry is through mean vibes, which is a trait in Sims 4 and players can apply it to their house if they want to see drama. Every time a mischief interaction happens, your Sim gets an angry moodlet. 

Mischief is a social skill in the game and allows players to pull pranks on other Sims. This can either be received well by a happy Sim or ruin an already grumpy Sim’s day.

Voodoo Dolls

It is an evil doll. Players can acquire a Voodoo doll by fishing in Oasis Springs Park, digging some areas when looking for treasure, or by purchasing it from Madame Zoe. Players can also interact with the doll whenever they want.

Moreover, poke is among these interactions and players get an angry moodlet for four hours after poking.

Getting Angry via Cheat Codes in Sims 4

According to different situations, players can apply some cheat codes to make their Sim angry. “sims.add_buff AngryHigh” instantly makes a Sim angry. On the other hand, ”sims.add_buff_e_buff_angry” gets your Sim an angry moodlet for 12 hours and, “sims.add_buff Social_Angry” causes a Sim to become socially angry.

Other Fast Ways To Get Sims Angry

Apart from the above-mentioned tricks, some other events are also there which can make your Sim angry in the base version of The Sims 4 and they are:

  • Losing at an argument with another Sim.
  • Smashed Dollhouse brings anger in toddlers and children.
  • Obtaining too many gutter balls in bowling. 
  • Losing at a horseshoe tossing game.
  • Observing that cables are chewed in the spaceship.
  • After getting a defeat in a darts game.
  • Getting nasty result sheets at school or work.

On the other hand, DLCs bring with them a few more events resulting in Sim’s angry mood.

Interactions With an Angry Sim

In Sims 4 players can engage in many activities with other Sims. When players click on a Sim, they find several options for interacting with them.

Unlike normal Sims, players get only two options to interact with an angry Sim. These options are:

  1. Discuss angry mood
  2. Try to calm down

Additionally, when an angry Sim goes for a job or career, they do not gain any work performance points.

Which Traits Affect the Angry Behavior of a Sim

There are a couple of traits that affect the anger in a Sim’s behavior and these are:

Hot-Headed: This is an emotional trait in Sims 4. Generally, Sims with this trait have furious behavior and tend to become angry on encountering mischief.

Laziness: It is a lifestyle trait, and with this, Sims acquire some powerful moodlets while watching television or taking naps. Lazy Sims can be seen napping on chairs and couches. They get angry whenever someone wakes them up.

What Are Moodlets in Sims 4

A moodlet, or say a powerup, is like a boost that alters a Sim’s emotions and changes their current mood. Sims, on experiencing a pleasant moment, a bad event, or watching mischief happenings, automatically acquire a moodlet.

Moreover, moodlets can be positive, neutral, or negative and that can increase or decrease your Sim’s mood relatively. Players also receive moodlets according to their surroundings.

If the player decorates a house and keeps it clean, his Sim gets a positive moodlet, or seeing a romantic painting gives a flirty moodlet.

How to Make Angry Vlogs in Sims 4

Players can also make angry vlogs. For that, when angry, click on the video recording station option and start recording the desired vlog. However, the nature of the vlog will be determined by Sim’s mood at the end of the recording.
